write about steps you could take to stay clear about your values and to set appropriate boundaries at your internship agency and beyond.

Directions

Go to  YourMorals.Org Links to an external site.. Set up an account and then take the Schwartz Values Test and the Big Five Personality Test. Go to the  Barrett Values Centre Links to an external site.  and take the personal values test. After completing the above assessments online, you have a picture of the values that are important to you. As you think about those, choose one that scores as most important. Now, consider an ethical/boundary situation that you might confront in your internship agency related to either the clients or the co-workers.

· Use the scenarios on pages 85-98 to consider the dilemma that most goes against the value you chose (ie: the therapist or worker went against that value).

· Then write about steps you could take to stay clear about your values and to set appropriate boundaries at your internship agency and beyond. Be sure to include at least three approaches you could use to help you stay on track.

· This reflection journal entry must be a minimum of 500 words.

What are some potential hypotheses you could test in your current or past position?

So we have seen the book give you a number of different demonstrations of how statistics can be used in business. But after this module’s reading, you might be wondering does hypothesis testing actually apply to one’s everyday work?

Applying leaning from this week’s reading, respond to the following questions:

  • What are some potential hypotheses you could test in your current or past position?
  • Why do you think testing these hypotheses would (or would not) be valuable to your organization?
The family is insisting the patient wants everything done. How do you think the staff should proceed?

A patient arrives in the ER with a “thumper” piston-driven device providing CPR to an 82 year old client who was found unresponsive on the floor at home-possibly from a sudden  ventricular Cardiac event. The ER just received a DNR from a prior hospitalization for a UTI. The family is insisting the patient wants everything done. How do you think the staff should proceed?

Assuming that you cannot visit these people in person, and you have no positional authority, what can you do to maximize your persuasiveness?

Suppose that you are part of a virtual team and must persuade other team members on an important matter (such as switching suppliers or altering the project deadline).
